Sensor Circuit Calibration using a DAC
Setting the DC Set Point for Sensor Circuit
A common DAC application is digitally controlling the set
point and/or calibration of parameters in a signal chain. The
?gure below shows controlling the DC set point of a light
detector sensor using the MCP4728 12-bit quad DAC device.
The DAC provides 4096 output steps. If G = 1 and internal
reference voltage options are selected, then the internal
2.048 V REF would produce 500 μV of resolution. If G = 2 is

selected, the internal 2.048 V REF would produce 1 mV of
resolution. If a smaller output step size is desired, the output
range would need to be reduced. So, using gain of 1 is a
better choice than using gain of 2 con?guration option for
smaller step size, but its full-scale range is one half of that
of the gain of 2. Using a voltage divider at the DAC output is
another method for obtaining a smaller step size.
